A “media personality and political commentator” is facing backlash online for the disgusting comments he made about an American Airlines flight attendant. However, I don’t think this is getting quite enough attention yet, and I hope that (at a minimum) the airline bans him from traveling with the carrier going forward.
As you’d expect, he received a lot of criticism from airline employees for this — both for posting a flight attendant’s picture without her permission, and for how he labeled her. Initially he defended himself by claiming that he had obtained the flight attendant’s permission to take her photograph. Riiiiight… “hey, I hate you, and I’d like to post your picture online and call you a pig… do I have your consent?”
She went on to say that “he is a self-proclaimed bully and has made an entire career off of harassment,” and “I assure you all I was not unprofessional with him nor did I do anything to warrant his attention.” She also said she intends “to pursue this to the extent of the law—not only for me, but to shed light on the increased stress and harassment flight crew endure onboard and even online.”
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
